** Description changed: + === + Although alsa-firmware is not being included in Ubuntu, all firmware will be included in linux-firmware. Some of it is already included, and the rest will be done for the Maverick release (assuming no legal problems with doing so). Likely, a separate bug will be opened to track that progress. More information to follow later on. + === + Ubuntu doesn't have a package which would contain the firmware that ALSA ships in their alsa-firmware package. The lack of the firmware makes many high-end soundcards unusable in ubuntu. The firmware for the soundcards is shipped within the alsa source package, so the license shouldn't be an issue.
